No I don’t as it happens. My next door neighbours are American . Opposite me live a Russian family and next to them live an Asian family. Oh and Mrs PB is Italian.
No racism doesn’t affect me at all.
Can someone pls tell me why these small group of people, like “black people” feel the need to have more places in the govoment?
After all, there about 600 seats in the main house, they tell us they make up about 10% the people in the UK (all groups), so why should they be MP’s?
Why should we all be made to fell bad about this?
After all, policts is not about colour or back ground, its about helping people.
You can’t defame a prominent public figure especially not an MP (well you could but you better have a pretty big bank balance). You really could end up in deep sh1t Emma but you’re far too stupid to realize. You ought to withdraw everything you’ve said about her. All it would take would be for 1 person who came across this board to email Diane Abbott and you would be well and truly screwed. Your backside would end up in court so fast you wouldn’t know what hit you. How can any one person be so stupid? Well if one day the board gets sued for publishing one of Emma’s libellous comments you’ll only have yourselves to blame for letting her do it.
What could possibly be racist about a festival called “Darkie Day” I wonder? Could it be the people dressing up in blackface and afro wigs singing songs with racist lyrics?
Sorry, but I disagree with the idea that most asian/black mps have made racist comments. Where’s the proof? Also, I don’t see someone saying that the editor of the Daily Mail wants policies that are “tough on blacks” as a racist comment. It’s an accusation of intolerance towards Hitchens and his paper but I think it’s a fair comment considering it’s the Daily Mail.
As for having ethnic minorities in parliament well it’s part of the democratic process to have your views represented in parliament. Otherwise you have people that are disenfranchised. It’s perfectly reasonable to give somebody who could represent all aspects of a constituency the chance to stand for election. Let’s face it, a white MP wouldn’t fully understand all the issues affecting non-white people. So it’s good that Black people, Asian people, women, Catholics, Hindus, muslims, the disabled all have some kind of voice in parliament from people who fully understand issues affecting those minority groups.
If the people running the show here thought what i or you have said was in any way dangerous to the prospects of this website folding, im sure they would delete it as they have done so in the past with others produced threads.
For the last time, i have told no lie, diane said what she said, its fact, and if i was to be sued for telling the truth, i would be a martyr for millions.
But you carry on the scare tactic of incitement to racial hatred, and it might be you spending 7 years in jail. You sum up anti-white racism with comments like “I think it’s a fair comment considering it’s the Daily Mail.”
Do you not realise how racially incitefull that is mr bigastuff, come on…
I’d like to see diane abbott explain what she meant by accussing a white person of policy thats “tuff on blacks”, be all over the media, she would lose her job, probably spend 7 years inside. The This Week presenter was extremely quick to divert the conversation away from it.
I’ll tell you what i’ll do, i’ll email Peter himself, and ask him for his views, if he says theres nothing in it, i’ll refrain from mentioning it again in this thread. Infact, i’ll email diane too.
What are the darkie day racist lyrics? Its important to ban what racist jibes are spoken.
i’m so sorry i know this is a serious thread (an u know i lubs u emma) but mr big i sooooooooooo cant wait to use this phrase :
”You have the reasoning ability of a bowl of porridge” (mr big’s quote)
lmao :lol: :wink: caff tiptoes back to fun stuff and doesnt worry her pretty ickle head bout this stuff……….*sighs* :) :) :wink: :wink:
Peter Hitchin – A brush with intolerance http://hitchensblog.mailonsunday.co.uk/
“Last week, as some readers of this blog noticed, I was more or less accused of racial bigotry by Diane Abbott MP on the BBC TV programme ‘This Week’. She accused me, quite without foundation, of wanting to ‘bash Blacks’. I made it plain that I objected to this but wasn’t really given an opportunity to defend myself or to rebut the allegation. Several people wrote to me to say how much they disapproved of Ms Abbott’s behaviour.
I have wondered since whether I should have walked off the set but I wasn’t sufficiently annoyed at the time. Anyone who takes unfashionable positions on major issues gets all-too-used to being treated in this rude, dismissive way. My main feeling was surprise that Ms Abbott, whom I had previously regarded as one of the more intelligent MPs, should behave in this fashion.
I seem to remember inviting Ms Abbott to abuse me if she wanted to, though I was quite taken aback with the form her response then took.”
Its quite clear from Peter’s blog, that he thought he was being accused of racism.
What diane was said was wrong, and not just because it was racist, but because it incites racial hatred to potentially 50 million people in britain, thats the real danger, and against the law, she broke the law, because it did incite racial hatred, several people wrote to peter expressing their dissatisfaction in her use of words.
I wonder what diane will reply with, if she does at all, she’ll probably be too scared.
I ask individuals here to email her too, the more that do so, the more chance she’ll reply to one of us.

OMG! Emma really is mad! To PB, you do realize this place could be up the creek if anyone actually took Emma’s advice and contacted Diane Abbott. Emma’s comments are libellous there’s not even a hint of a doubt about it and you’ve published them. I’m not a lawyer so I really don’t know if saying that the views are not your own will suffice. I sincerely hope you know what you’re doing.
Emma’s falsely accused a member of parliament of being a racist who incites racial hatred and of breaking the law, along with other slurs on her character and reputation. She’s just begging to get a summons and in the process she could take this board down with her too. Anyone with even the least bit of common sense should realize that Emma crossed the line big time on this occasion and by suggesting that people contact the MP in relation to this issue she may have sealed her fate.
Here’s some information to clarify what I’m saying:
“Defamation is any published material that damages the reputation of an individual or an organisation. This covers material on the internet as well as radio and television broadcasts – so even drama and fiction can be defamatory if they damage someone’s reputation. You can only publish defamatory material if it comes within one of the recognised legal defences. If it doesn’t, the publication will amount to libel and you may have to pay substantial damages.
Internet sites are not exempt from any libel laws. If you are publishing on the internet you are bound by the same libel laws as print publishers.
In the UK, internet service providers are coming under increasing pressure to close sites containing defamatory allegations. You also have to be careful about the comments others post on your site. There have been cases where individuals have sued online publishers for libel over customer book reviews published on their sites.
Libel law protects individuals or organisations from unwarranted, mistaken or untruthful attacks on their reputation. A person is libelled if a publication:
Exposes them to hatred, ridicule or contempt
Causes them to be shunned or avoided
Discredits them in their trade, business or profession
Generally lowers them in the eyes of right thinking members of society
The most important point is to make absolutely sure that what you are printing or writing is true. Do not make claims or accusations that you cannot prove. Even if you think you can do this, be cautious. Proving things in court can be very difficult.
If you write something that cannot be substantiated the credibility of your site, organisation or cause may be questioned. It can also land you with an expensive lawsuit and there is no legal aid for libel cases.”
Thanks for the most informative walk through of the laws on libel and defamation Mr B.
However, as you have alleged that Emma’s conduct makes her a person whose actions are covered by the Mental Health Act 1983, and therefore she cannot be held legally responsible for those actions, I think that JustChat is quite safe from the threat of Proceedings.
After all her comments could be construed as the ramblings of a raving lunatic.
I thought that act related to criminal cases and not civil cases. I don’t think it says anything about defamation. Well, it’s your neck on the line not mine. If you’re happy with the risk then so be it.
